    New smart helmet

    Helmet Update: Never received any anything to indicate order was shipped. Nothing appeared on my credit card. When it sounds to good to be true it is. Just someone having fun at the expense of others.

    New smart helmet

    Just ordered one. I'll post a review when I've tried it out. If it's not that great of quality I'll just use it for when I'm testing something new around town and for short trips.

    No brake lights and on the road. KrZy8

    Sounds like a ground fault. I had a friend who' s Gold Wing trike had a problem with all the lights in the rear of the bike going out when either of the brakes were applied. Turn out to be a problem at one of the connectors. Check everything from negative battery connection back. Hope this helps.

    Bad Idle and won't stay on (but turn on...)

    Did you drain the old fuel out of the tank before adding fresh fuel? I had similar problem and it turned out that the fuel was 25% water. Had to drain tank and start over.

    Hyperpro Street Box Suspension Kit thoughts?

    I've had the HyperPro Street Box for about a year and a half. Much better then the stock stuff that came on the bike. For me there was a vast improvement in ride and handling. Bought mine at AIMExpo and saved 20%. Walt Wunderlich Sebastian, Fl

    Upgrading suspension instead of replacing bike

    I have an '08 that uses the HyperPro street box, which comes with progressive front springs and a rear shock. The Kit is $699. The rear shock can be rebuilt for $150. Ride quality improved 100%. Rear shock also has progressive Spring so you do not hook up the soft/hard lever thingy...
